Removing araldite from knife liners

[Shewie]

I made an **** of a job putting a knife together a few months ago, I've got it down to bits again but the liners are caked in araldite.

Is there a sneaky old wives trick to getting it off or shall I just chuck them in the bin and buy some more ?

 

[slammer187]

Boil them or soak them in something like meths or paint thinner?

Chuck them Rich.

You'll never get it all off and more than likely end up damaging them with what ever you do to shift the araldite.

I would chuck them too buddy for all they cost .

 

[Shewie]

I think you're right lads, just being a tight yorkshireman I suppose

Okay next question then ...

Anybody got any white and red liners to sell ?

Pikebite had some liners up for grabs.

White liners sorted now, thanks Lance

Still on the lookout for some red though peeps ?

Edit:

Just seen slammers post, thanks for the link mate

What thickness & size?

 

[Shewie]

1mm or .75 would be nice, 40x130mm is plenty

I have cleaned up a spacer when in the same position I scraped the majority off with a knife then sanded the rest I would fancy doing it with a liner though.

I've got some red you're welcome to. .75 x 90 x 145. I'll stick it in the post.

Nice one Josh, I'll let you have an extra big swig on the Jura next time

I might have to bring my leather along for the sheath next time we're out and get some pointers from you on where to start.
